I am so sorry to ask for prayers for my life, with all the horrible things happening in the world. Please pray that my husband and three children can move out of my mother’s house. My brother who is diagnosed schizophrenic bipolar lives with us too and generally makes our lives miserable and unpeaceful.

I have gone through clinical depression and anxiety most of my life and living with him again is like the worst nightmare but we have no other option for now. I just so happened to have a bout with depression that would have me consider suicide if I didn’t love my children so much an pray my rosary daily. I pray it so slowly and thoughtfully because frankly I rest in each word.

I need my medication but even though I take it I am still depressed. I am going to nursing school in the Fall, hopefully to God. And I need prayers for this decision. I can’t be living with my brother because he gets angry at us. He finds fault all the time.

I cannot get depressed again! I need the courage and peace to go to school and do well so we can have money to live.
 
Prayer of St. Dymphna

Lord, our God, you graciously chose St. Dymphna as patroness of those afflicted with mental, emotional, and nervous disorders. She is thus an inspiration and a symbol of charity to the thousands who ask her intercession.

Please grant, Lord, through the prayers of this pure youthful martyr, relief and consolation to all suffering such trials, and especially L. Ramos and her brother, for whom we pray.

We beg you, Lord, to hear the prayers of St. Dymphna on their behalf. Grant all those for whom we pray patience in their sufferings and resignation to your divine will. Please fill them with hope, and grant them the relief and cure they so desire.

We ask this through Christ our Lord, who suffered agony in the garden. Amen.

O most beautiful Flower of Mount Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven, who brought forth the Son of God still remaining a Virgin, assist us in this necessity.

O God, may many creative-minded people step into the life of LRamos’ brother and may his professionals hit upon more constructive remediation.

Please God deluge that whole family with dignity and poise and rejoicing in Your gifts and unhampered any longer by unseen dynamics from wherever.

And provide for them, guide them, protect them, and strengthen all of them in good doing, in all ways, Amen.
 
Remembering you and your family in my daily prayers. God bless.
 
This is NOT a selfish request, it is the
cry of a tormented spirit, I pray that you
will be able to battle your depression w/
prayer and that your brother can find the
help he needs w/ his schizophrenia and
bi-polar illness!!

Our Father, who is in heaven,
hallowed be Your Name,
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses as
we forgive those who trespass against us,
(forgive us our debts as we forgive our
debtors),
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen,

Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is w/ you,
blessed are you among women,
blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners, now
and at the hour of death.(X3)
Amen.
 
Most holy and afflicted Virgin,
Queen of Martyrs,
you stood beneath the cross,
witnessing the agony of your dying Son.
Look with a mother’s tenderness and pity on me,
who kneel before you.
I venerate your sorrows
and I place my requests
with filial confidence
in the sanctuary of your wounded heart.

Present them, I beseech you,
on my behalf to Jesus Christ,
through the merits of His own most sacred passion and death,
together with your sufferings
at the foot of the cross.
Through the united efficacy of both,
obtain the granting of my petition.
To whom shall I have recourse in my wants and miseries
if not to you, Mother of Mercy?
You have drunk so deeply of the chalice of your Son,
you can compassionate our sorrows.

Holy Mather, your soul was pierced
by a sword of sorrow
at the sight of the passion of your Divine Son.
Intercede for me and obtain for me from our Lord
my intentions, if they
be for His honor and glory,
and for my good.

Amen.
 
St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen…


:highprayer:
 
From 3 John 1:2
Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.
From Philippians 4:19
And it is he who will supply all your needs from his riches in glory because of what Christ Jesus has done for us.
:highprayer: May God surround you with His grace and supply all your needs - from your housing needs for you and your family; to His healing of your depression - to wisdom, discernment - may He prosper you and bless you and your family with His amazing Grace; His unconditional Mercy; and his unfathomable Peace!!!
 
Thanks to all who have responded and made me feel this was not a selfish request. My brother also needs prayers and thanks for that too:)

Prayer to Our Lady of Mental Peace

O Lady of Mental Peace,
Mother of Tranquility
and Mother of Hope,
look upon Lin in this time
of weakness and unrest.

Teach her searching heart
to know that God’s Love
for her is unchanging and
unchangeable, and, that
true human love can only
begin and grow by touching
His Love.

Let your gentle Peace -
which this world cannot give
  • be always with her.
    And, help her to bring this
    same Peace into the lives
    of others.
Our Lady of Mental Peace,
  • Pray for us!
    Amen.
Jesus, Help Me!

In every need let me come to You with humble trust,
saying:
Jesus, help me!
In all my doubts, perplexities, and temptations:
Jesus, help me!
In hours of loneliness, weariness and trials:
Jesus, help me!
In the failure of my plans and hopes, in disappointments,
troubles and sorrows:
Jesus, help me!
When others fail me, and Your Grace alone can assist me:
Jesus, help me!
When I throw myself on Your tender Love as Savior:
Jesus, help me!
When my heart is cast down by failure, at seeing no good
come from my efforts:
Jesus, help me!
When I feel impatient, and my cross irritates me:
Jesus, help me!
When I am ill, and my head and hands cannot work and
I am lonely:
Jesus, help me!

Always, always, in spite of weakness, falls and short-
comings of every kind:
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, help me and never forsake me!

Amen

Dear Jesus,

I humbly implore you to grant your special graces to our family. May our home be the shrine of peace, purity, love, labor and faith. I beg you, dear Jesus, to protect and bless all of us, absent and present, living and dead.

O Mary,

Loving Mother of Jesus, and our Mother, pray to Jesus for our family, for all the families of the world, to guard the cradle of the newborn, the schools of the young and their vocations.

Blessed Saint Joseph,

holy guardian of Jesus and Mary, assist us by your prayers in all necessities of life. Ask of Jesus that special grace which he granted to you, to watch over our home at the pillow of the sick and the dying, so that with Mary and with you, Heaven may find our family unbroken in the sacred Heart of Jesus.

Amen.

To Our Lady of Surprises

O Mary, my mother and Our Lady of Surprises, what a happy joy you caused the wedding guests, when you asked your Divine Son to work the miracle of water into wine. What a happy surprise for them since they thought the wine had run dry. I, too, Mary, love surprises and as your child, may I ask you to favor me with one today? I ask this only because you are my ever caring mother.
 
***Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb,
Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death
Amen.
